Kitchen Garden Workshop: Making Compost and Natural Fertilisers

    Saturday, 21 June 2025

    Time
    10:00 - 16:00

    Join us for a workshop on home composting here at Asthall Manor Kitchen Garden, Burford, Oxfordshire, OX18 4HW
    Complete beginners through to keen amateurs all welcome.
    In this all-day workshop you will learn the basics of different composting systems alongside a bit of helpful theory. You will also carry out some fun, practical work to apply your learning and to help keep us warm.
    Good, home-based or community-based composting is one of the key but often missing links to achieving the growing of healthy, nutritious food. It’s also a great way to make best use of organic waste materials, recycling valuable nutrients while absorbing carbon and minimising our impact on council waste systems and the environment alike.
